Forward-Looking Statements
This presentation contains certain forward-looking statements including analyses and other information based on
forecasts of future results and estimates of amounts not yet determinable and statements relating to our future
prospects, developments and business strategies. Forward-looking statements are identified by their use of terms
and phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,”
“will” and similar terms and phrases, including references to assumptions. The forward-looking statements in this
presentation are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions,
including without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records
and other data available from third parties. Although we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when
made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies that are
difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish
these expectations, beliefs or projections.

Actual results could differ materially from expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements if one or more of
the underlying assumptions or expectations proves to be inaccurate or is not realized. Our actual future results may
be materially different from and worse than what we expect. We qualify all of the forward-looking statements by these
cautionary statements. We caution readers of this presentation not to place undue reliance on forward-looking
statements. Any forward-looking statements contained herein are made only as of the date of this presentation, and
we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

LPG Market Fundamentals
The Basics . . .
 What is LPG?                              The LPG Value Chain
 • Liquefied petroleum gas ("LPG") is      Gas production (~60%)   LPG shipping   Retail (~52%)
   a combination of C3 (propane) and
   C4 (butane)

 •    Both are natural gas liquids                                                Chemical (~23%)
     (“NGLs”) and are a byproduct of oil
     and natural gas production

 • These molecules are extracted or        Oil production (~40%)
   fractionated through natural gas                                               Industrial (~10%)
   processing and oil refining

                                                                                  Engine fuel (~8%)
 Why Use LPG?
 • LPG is cleaner than coal and oil;
   as an alternative fuel it can remove
   sulfur and particulate exhaust,                                                Refinery (~5%)
   reducing greenhouse gas
   emissions

 • LPG is also highly portable,
                                                                                  Other (~2%)
   making it a convenient source of
   energy usable in remote places
   where ordinary gas supplies are
   unavailable or have been
   interrupted

North American LPG Export Capacity Currently Stands at >90% Utilization
• Corresponding domestic demand growth appears unlikely, necessitating increasing exports to clear the market

• Energy Transfer’s Mariner East II began service in late 2018 and is expected to add three to four monthly VLGC cargoes
  initially, growing to seven to eight by 2021

• Enterprise’s expansion of its Houston export facility is expected to come online by 2H19, adding capacity for an additional
  8-9 VLGCs per month

• Ridley Island in British Columbia was commissioned recently and is expected to average two VLGC cargoes per month

  Major Gulf Coast Processing Constraints Should Begin to Ease by 2H19

  • U.S. NGL production is growing at a record pace, but limited fractionation capacity has
    constrained purity product growth

  • Growing fractionation capacity at Mont Belvieu should allow midstream players to
    fractionate more Y-grade product into purity propane and butane for export at lower
    prices

  • New capacity at Corpus Christi and Freeport will largely serve Permian volumes

China Continues to Drive Asian LPG Demand
    Chinese LPG Demand Outlook Remains Favorable
•       On 23 August 2018, Beijing placed a 25% tariff on U.S. LPG in response to American tariffs on Chinese exports

•       Residential LPG is still required as a substitute for coal in more remote areas, where piped gas infrastructure is too costly to
        install, but chemicals should account for a growing share of China’s LPG demand, especially with the nation’s rapidly expanding
        petrochemical complex

•       The EIA estimates that Chinese Petchem demand will rise to a total of more than 21 MTPA by 2024

•       Although no new PDH plants started up in China in 2017, Zhejiang Satellite’s 0.5 MTPA expansion is in service and the 0.7
        MTPA Fujian Meide plant is expected to start up in 2H19

•       State-owned refiners are also starting up an estimated 3.7 MTPA of alkylation units, which should reduce refinery supplies of
        butane currently sold to stand alone deep-processing units and increase the need for imports

    Government Policies and Infrastructure Development to continue Boosting Consumer Adoption
•          Following Modi’s landslide victory, It is expected that the Indian government will continue implementing strong-demand driven
           policies, which will benefit LPG penetration and demand growth – Government targeting 80m household connections by 2020.

•          The latest Petroleum Planning and Analysis Cell (PPAC) data reveals that total LPG consumption recorded a growth of 11.1%
           during January 2019 and a cumulative growth of 5.7% for the January-April period.

•          The government forecasts annual LPG demand to grow by 11%-12% over the next five years.

•          LPG infrastructure spending continues unabated, with GAIL recently announcing the revival of a pre-existing LPG plant at Usar
           in Maharashtra (western India). GAIL plans to revamp the Usar facility by converting it into a Propane Dehydrogenation (PDH)
           plant, which will produce 0.5 Mtpy of polypropylene. This 8 million rupee project, due for commissioning in 2024, will be India’s
           first PDH plant.

An Early Adopter of Scrubber Technology
 Four Years of Technical and Commercial Experience Operating Scrubbers Systems
• Corvette and Concorde were equipped with scrubbers at delivery in 2015

• Dorian LPG has had a head start, employing both a hybrid system and an enhanced open loop system (both VGP compliant)

• Scrubber systems add incremental complexity to vessels’ technical and operational management

• Experience integrating scrubber systems into vessel operations has prepared Dorian LPG to add ten additional scrubber
  systems to its fleet with marginal disruption

• Installation is planned to coincide with previously scheduled drydocking reducing vessel offhire and overall installation costs

Hybrid (Open and Closed Loop) System                                      Open Loop Systems are Simple in Comparison
